1. Why do people post on Facebook about abnormal things going on down there, like odd fluids, scratching and new smells?
2. People, give your kids some sex ed. Really, they'll be thankful for it in later life. It won't magically turn them into horned sluts under the command of the devil. It will however help them in their quest to NOT post what was referred in the above.
3. My God, can you spell at all? Could you at least attempt to spell phonetically? Do you really say "defiantly"?
4. Periods are your friends. Not the ones that come out of your vagina, but the ones that you put at the end of sentences. When you use them, what you say magically becomes much, much easier to understand, even if you can't spell and don't know a grammar book from a sandwich.
5. Why do you add as friends various relatives, like your parents, who don't know about certain aspects of your life, aspects which you wish to keep hidden from them, then promptly proceed to bragging about said aspects on your wall?
6. Why do you accept friend requests from various people you really don't know?
7. Ew.
8. Arguing for several posts with your ex or current partner over Facebook makes you sound like an immature little brat. Well, I guess that's what you are anyway.
9. Your insistence on bringing God into every detail of your life (and that's God and religion, not saying "goddamn") is both annoying and slightly creepy.
10. Why are there so many humans who think that "in America we speak English"?
11. Another example of racism. Oops, sorry, no, he says clearly once or twice that he is not a racist, so obviously he isn't one. If you close your eyes, believe it really hard and say out loud "I'm not a racist" three times in a row, the racism will magically disappear. Also note the fear of being in the minority. Perhaps it's because he sees how white people treat minorities and is afraid of being the target of such treatment in the future? I'd say "race preservation" is full of shit, but that would diverge from the topic of this post and it would be an insult to poop.
12. In addition to sex ed, people need to receive some education about society prior to the Bible. People like this guy, for example. Marriage existed in societies that had never heard of christianism before (some of which simply couldn't have heard about it because it didn't exist yet).
13. If you really don't care what other people think about you, then why do you mention it for several sentences? I don't care about chickpeas, you don't see me ramble about how it, do you?

So, where have I been? Well, just here, turning my computer on once in a while and playing Hearts.

I have returned to Montreal in August. I live in a residence for people with mental health problems. There are eight of us (nine when the other girl comes back from the hospital).

Once I got a table to put my computer on, I called a company to get an internet connection. They required a prepayment, so I did that, and faxed a confirmation. Then I waited. And waited. In the past month, I spoke with three or four different people from the company, had my order canceled a couple of times, was given two different appointments that were both canceled for various reasons, etc.

Their system just can't accept that multiple people living at the same address could want separate internet connections.

I finally got a connection with a different company, activated today. The guy worked around the system, so that, while the bill will be sent to my home address, it is written that I live next door.

I was bloody relieved when I turned my computer on and was signed in to MSN. AT LAST! Needless to say I am pissed at the other company and will obviously ask to get my prepayment back.

In the meantime, I have a new boyfriend. He is one of the residents here. I don't feel very well, rather depressed. And the web has gone on without me. I have many things to catch up on.

"I ABSOLUTELY HAD TO TELL YOU HOW IRRELEVANT THIS IS IN MY LIFE!"

I gave my cat toy mice to play with. She absolutely loves them. They do not contain cat nip. They are made of plain plastic and fake fur. She can smell them. If I put one in my pocket, she can smell it if she gets close enough.

I was quite surprised by the furry one (the living one, not the mice) this morning. Yesterday, I had put one of her toy mice in my pajama pants just for the pleasure of watching her smell it and retrieve it (I wasn't wearing the pants). This morning, the mouse wasn't in my pocket anymore. She jumped onto my bed and started mewing. Then her head was near the famous pocket. She smelled it. She knew there was a mouse in there, or there had been one recently. I never thought she could smell those mice even after they had been gone for hours!

On a completely different note: the Facebook news feed. If you use Facebook, you've surely noticed it. As far as I can tell, it basically doesn't filter anything, unless you tell it to. It shows you everything that appeared on friends' walls. I didn't mind, until the weekend came, and a particular friend found himself with lots of times on his hand. Lots of time which, naturally, he devoted to one of those applications I really don't give a shit about.

And this is only a part of all those damn things. And if I click the X that appears on hover, it doesn't just delete the story, it blocks this person from my news feed. Then again, it's not like I care about him enough to be sorry if he doesn't show up on there.

I don't want the average blog by a girl in her early 20s who talks about her life. I think I already know enough of those. No offense to those I do read, you are awesome, it's just that I'm looking for a different type of blog this time. I'd mostly love topical blogs. I'm interesting in video games (no one who's on a "kill Nintendo" war, please), movies, music, arts and computer/internet stuff (software, design, security, tips, etc.). I am not interested in fashion (unless it's alternative fashion) and celebrity gossip. Oh, blogs about politics or science can also be interesting, provided they're not written by religious nuts. Those would anger me.

Of course, anything funny or involving kittens is also welcome. I'm not only looking for deep, insightful things that will change the course of the universe.

Suggestions both in French and English are welcome.
